Crushed sweet corn lemon rice |

ಮುಸುಕಿನ ಜೋಳ ಮತ್ತು ನಿಂಬೆ ಹಣ್ಣಿನ ಚಿತ್ರಾನ್ನ |
Another recreated recipe by me, with coarsely ground fresh corn kernels and lemon juice, which I tasted in one of the restaurant in Delhi (Saravana Bhavan).
This has been paired along with banana raita/sasive. Somehow I have not posted the recipe of banana raita or sasive till now on my blog, however…… I usually prepare it, as an accompaniment with spicy dishes or saaru (rasam), huli (sambar) etc.
Today I just prepared it as an accompaniment with this corn lemon rice … and both together goes very well. Here is the recipe for crushed corn lemon rice.
Ingredients : measuring cup used – 250 ml
- Cooked Rice – 2&1/2 cups
- Salt to taste
- Lemon juice – 2 tbsp or as per taste
To grind together :
- Corn Kernels (raw) – 1/2 cup
- Mint leaves – 2 tbsp
- Coriander leaves – 1/4 cup
- Curry leaves – 10 leaves
- Grated fresh coconut – 1/3 cup
- Green chilli – 10 to 12 ( adjust)
Other Ingredients :
- Oil/Ghee – 2 tbsp
- Mustard seeds – 1/4 tsp
- Bengal gram – 1 tbsp
- Black gram – 1/2 tbsp
- Curry leaves – 10 leaves
- Cashew nuts – 1/4 cup (broken)
- Onion – 1 big (chopped)
PROCEDURE :
- Grind together all the ingredients under the heading ” to grind ” and keep it aside
- Heat 2 tbsp Oil or Ghee (I use Ghee) and put all the ingredients under the heading ” Other ingredients ” , one by one



- Fry the onion till transparent, then add ground corn paste and saute well until raw smell disappears


- Now add cooked rice, salt and lemon juice… combine everything well
- Serve as such or with any raita
